Once you get over 275ish I doubt they’d chase it. No point going way beyond that if we need tile to bowl them out.

England always seem ultra conservative in these situations though. At least they have been in recent years.

I reckon they're aiming for 280

Stokes doesn’t seem to be batting conservatively right now

He’s come out swinging his arms like he’s on a night out

When’s lunch ? 1?

Should just put them in now.

What do you mean? It was only pitching a few feet outside the line!

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #408 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:33:58 am »

Pitched just outside leg

Welshred · « **Reply #409 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:34:10 am »

That was definitely reviewed just to get the slow mo of the ball hitting Stokes in the dick on the big screen

koptommy93 · « **Reply #410 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:34:56 am »

That was the worst review I've ever seen. Wtf??

IgorBobbins · « **Reply #411 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:36:36 am »

Stokes has got a messy helmet - covered in white stuff

Root sacrificing himself there

What odds did you get on that?

10/11 , I placed it yesterday morning.

Keep batting England , plenty of time left.

Kekule · « **Reply #414 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:40:06 am »

West Indies do know the lbw law, don’t they?

The North Bank · « **Reply #415 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:40:07 am »

Keep reviewing windies, it’s Manchester, could always rain.

Welshred · « **Reply #416 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:40:13 am »

Ok. Convinced that these two reviews are to just take a few minutes out of the game.

voodoo ray · « **Reply #417 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:40:21 am »

reviewing another one pitching about 10 feet outside leg, but at least that one might have actually hit the stumps.

IgorBobbins · « **Reply #418 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:40:35 am »

Third Umpire is sounding pissed off with all these ridiculous reviews

Welshred · « **Reply #419 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:41:36 am »

They'll declare either at the end of this over or the next

The North Bank · « **Reply #420 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:42:21 am »

Got to let Stokes get a century, bat till he’s out at least.

The North Bank · « **Reply #421 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:42:49 am »

Get in! Another review

The North Bank · « **Reply #422 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:43:25 am »

Rock and roll the replay a few times.

Kekule · « **Reply #423 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:43:56 am »

Third umpire should just say, “I’m not even looking at that. Tell them to stop pissing about”

Legs · « **Reply #424 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:44:16 am »

Taking the piss with these reviews

No way, if they feel we are comfortable it shouldn't matter where Stokes is.

koptommy93 · « **Reply #426 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:45:11 am »

Batting too long as per.

That's 5 minutes out of the day from those 3 reviews, could be crucial at the end of the day

He's got £100 on the draw

The North Bank · « **Reply #428 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:46:41 am »

Get to 300 at least

Welshred · « **Reply #429 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:46:59 am »

It'll be the end of this over

The North Bank · « **Reply #430 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:47:17 am »

Sit down root , no declaration yet.

Won't need that many.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #432 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:47:29 am »

Pointless continuing. We’re just spinning our wheels now. Not scoring quickly and just losing overs.

The North Bank · « **Reply #433 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:50:02 am »

1 more over come on

The North Bank · « **Reply #434 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:51:40 am »

Keep your arms crossed captain. Don’t listen to the doubters.

Kekule · « **Reply #435 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:52:37 am »

300 to win. But they’re carrying on.

I said they’d be conservative with the declaration, I didn’t think they’d be this conservative.

Welshred · « **Reply #436 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:52:39 am »

1 more over is ridiculous. They've got enough now.

Welshred · « **Reply #437 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:53:06 am »

Just wasting the time we get with the second new ball this

The North Bank · « **Reply #438 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:55:10 am »

Can’t declare now Stokes is nearing a 100. Give it another over.

Kekule · « **Reply #439 on:** July 20, 2020, 11:55:57 am »

Broad looked a bit miffed there.
